**Hardware**
- Idea: We could use a thermistor to measure the temperature of the spindle motor: this way the software could "let it rest" when it gets too hot.
- Note: The linear bearings of the X carriage must be glued in place (use epoxy or similar) since vibrations produced by the spindle motor move the bearings out of place.
- v0.9.7 has an improved Z carriage: uses much less plastic, it holds the spindle tightly and leaves more metal surface exposed for better cooling.
- v0.9.6b has a robust Y axis motor stand (improvement suggested and tested by **Yopero**), and the Z carriage now shows the name of the machine (how cool is that? :P)

* _Regarding the woodbase:_ **Guillermo Welch** always contemplated the possibility of attaching the machine (optionally) to a woodbase. I decided to use the base as a main structural part instead.
